The programme indicated gold mineralization in four zones. 1974: A 4 or 5 hole deep diamond frill program was completed with no assay certificates. 1984: Kennco conducted geological mapping, sampling, and geophysical surveys. 1987: Twin Gold Mines Ltd. conducted magnetometer, VLF, and IP surveys and drilled 76 DDH totalling 12531.6m. 1988: Twin Gold Mines Ltd. conducted geological mapping, sampling, and drilled 67 DDH totalling 12669.3 m. 1990: Twin Gold Mines along with Massive Resources Ltd. completed a comprehensive exploration and development program on the Lingman Lake Mine Property. 1994: MNDM consulted consulting engineers to assess the property as an abandoned mine site. 1995: MNDM opened the majority of the property for staking. In late Feb 1996, Echo Bay Mines Ltd. set up a camp and drill equipment to Lingman Lake property. 11 drill holes were completed over the property (approx. 2000m), including 1 DDH totalling 271.5 m on the North Zone. 1998: Wolfden Resources Inc. signed a letter of agreement to earn an interest in the property, and carried out prospecting, stripping and sampling. 2002: Wolfden Resources Inc purchased the staked claims from Echo Bay Mines Ltd. 2003: Anaconda Gold Corporation conducted prospecting/sampling on Lingman Lake Property. 2016: Signature Resources Ltd. carried out geological mapping and sampling.
